The Naysayers

And find him she did.

Prior to her arrival, Chidori was making some food for them to eat, packing as if it were a picnic or something because they did plan to be out for most of the day. During that process, she realized that she was an inexperienced cook but somehow what she made came out alright. This explained why she walked up to him with a bag in hand.

"Hey babe, what's up? You look like you've been busy. Not working too hard I hope."

"You better be. I wouldn't have it any other way." She said this in response to him being glad to see her, Chidori would have a few words for him if he started to be annoyed by her, mainly because she enjoyed being around him so much. It would be the equivalent of him breaking up with her, basically. Anyways, he never told her why they were going to meet up here or what he was doing. The response of "training" was as informative as one imagined it to be, and she was going to chew him out over text but instead decided to show up in person.

"You making any progress you happy with or you gonna need me to whip you into shape?" She jokingly punched his arm while handing him the bag. "Uh, be careful with that. In there is some lasagna, a shitty excuse for lava cake, and potato salad. Don't go throwing that around or else some of those words are going to change pace, and I don't know about you, but I'm not personally a fan of lava salad and potato cake."

It was odd that he seemed so riled up about this, but she was glad he was this way. Seemed like he was actually enjoying what he was doing, and if he was happy then she was happy too.

"Oh my Sol. Here? In public?" She was joking around with him, she couldn't help herself. It was fun teasing him and he was always a good sport about it, so she's never really had a reason to stop. She did pause for a moment, considering whether or not she was going to train with him. Chidori could use a little training with her Hakuda and up her general speed as well, and he seemed close enough to her level of strength that it wouldn't be that crazy of a difference.

"Fine alright. Though I hope you'll feel good about either beating up your pregnant girlfriend or losing a fight to your pregnant girlfriend." A grin was plastered on his face. "C'mon, hands up big shot. Show me what you got."

"It's safe for the kid as long as you don't punch me in the stomach, dick head. I'm only in my first trimester, I still got some bite left in me." Speaking of which, there's a noticeable bump forming around her stomach area. She hates bringing it up and hates when people bring it up (besides Sol), mainly because she doesn't want to feel like she's getting old. Normally people don't have kids until later down the line in life yet here she was, with her boyfriend of two months with a baby inside of her.

Anyways, she threw out a punch as fast as she could towards him but purposely grazed his elbow. He'd probably notice how bad her form was as well; punching wasn't really her strong suit. She was much more of a kicking person because that's was what she was trained with, but because of the baby it was going to be kind of hard moving how she used to.

"What, you want me to direct you into an ass whoopin'?"

Chidori has seen enough of Sol's matches to know what this move was, meaning she was prepared for it. What she wasn't prepared for was the grabbing of her should, something she let completely slip through her defenses because it caught her off guard. When the kick came around, she brought her hand up to the top of her head and her other hand to her elbow, meaning that his leg would connect with her forearm, lessening the blow.

Chidori would try to set up for her next attack by dodging to the side opposite of his kick, moving away from his extended leg and towards his open side. She focused on her guard more, waiting to see what he was going to do next and attack at the first opening.
